Regular Verbs and Irregular Verbs

The Past Simple verbs are usually formed by adding 'd', 'ed', or 'ied' to the base verb.
(Verbs pada simple past tense biasanya hanya tinggal menambahkan 'd', 'ed', or 'ied' di belakang kata dasarnya)

Examples:
celebrate + d → celebrated
participate + d → participated
try + [change the 'y' to 'i'] + ed → tried

We call these regular verbs.
(Kita bisa menyebutnya regular verbs)

Many other verbs, however, are irregular.
(Namun, kebanyakan verb lainnya adalah irregular)

Irregular verb is different with regular verb in the past tense.
(Irregular verb berbeda dengan regular verb dalam past tense)

We need to remember the change of verb itself.
(Kita harus mengingat perubahan dari verb itu sendiri)

There is no other way than remembering it, so you need to start remembering from now since there is really lot.
(Tidak ada cara lain selain menghafalkannya, jadi lebih baik dihafalkan dari sekarang ya karena banyak pake banget)

Past Progressive

The past progressive is a verb tense which is used to show that an ongoing past action was happening at a specific moment of interruption, or that two ongoing actions were happening at the same time.
(Past progressive adalah tenses yang digunakan untuk menunjukan sebuah aktivitas yang sedang terjadi pada masa lalu, atau dua buah aktivitas yang terjadi pada waktu yang sama di masa lampau)

There are 3 formulas for past progressive.
(Ada 3 rumus untuk past progressive)

For positive form:
Subject + to be (was / were) + Verb1 + ing + object
For negative form:
Subject + to be (was / were) + not + Verb1 + ing + object
For interrogative form:
To be (was / were) + subject + verb + ing + object + ?

Remember, uses of to be "was" or "were" really depend to the subject.
(Ingat, penggunaan to be "was” atau “were” sangat bergantung pada subjeknya)
